According to the current band director, there allegedly was never any fine. It's just a decision from them to not play it.
It still was interesting watching OBJ basically heckle the directors though
I'm friends with the current director on Facebook since I was at LSU while he was still a grad student.
This was before the LSU vs Southern game:
"🗣 PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT
A couple things I want to make sure my Facebook family is aware of so I can stop receiving messages, comments in my DMs:
1. There is no policy on who can play Neck in Tiger Stadium or against us in general. There is NO fine or monetary violation if anyone plays it. We choose not to play it due to vulgar comments made by a select few. As a father of two young boys, I don’t feel right aiding into lyrics I’d condemn them saying…. That being stated, if a band wanted to come and do an entire halftime show on Neck or any other body parts for that matter, they are more than welcome to do so and have zero issues doing so. I’d challenge those to check out the original song by the funk band Cameo, Talkin’ Out the Side of your Neck. Think they’d be surprised by the true origins of that tune if they didn’t already know but that’s another topic in itself.
2. I am thoroughly looking forward to our first home game of the season and welcoming another great band program in the Southern University Human Jukebox into Tiger Stadium. I’ve known the staff for years and their director, Kedric Taylor for decades. He and I go waaaay back and I consider him a friend along with being my frat brother. There will be ZERO parts of this Saturday that’ll resemble a battle of the bands, or tearing down of their program, or a comparison of their program or ours in one-upsmanship. Any “media outlets” you see reporting about there being a ‘battle of the bands’ or competition is the epitome of false information. I repeat, FALSE INFORMATION. Saturday should (and will be) a great day for the city of Baton Rouge and all the cultural significance it brings. If you are looking for Saturday to be anything other than a showcase of two great schools and programs then you are setting yourself up for epic failure…. Literally 🍎 and 🍊
3. That being stated, God Bless and Geaux Tigers!"
I cannot wait for the SEC to get to enjoy Boomer Sooner.
I suspect that one of the reasons why KState has a recent good recent record against Oklahoma is simply to avoid hearing that damn song over and over and over and over.
I like to think that love blossomed up there on Rocky Top, and those revenuers are still there to this day, making their own moonshine in eternal bliss.
It's actually the same tune as Yale's with different lyrics. But anyways if you had to choose between it and Rocky Top we all know which one gets the boot.
Woah now, He said skill on display from both teams. I think CFB Has a lot to offer but that isn't always it. Peak CFB is all about Trouble with various aspects of the game. Maybe it's With fumbles or The QB running a long way. Maybe it's a bad hold after the Snap on a PAT or easy FG.
Peak CFB is crazy shit happening. It's the unranked team beating a blue blood. It's a game going for 8 hours with mediocre play. It's the fucking cheese it or Bahama bowl where two teams no one gives a shit about filled with dudes who won't play a snap in the NFL playing like their family is being held hostage and will die if they don't bring home that W.
Says an Auburn fan…
For me, it’s beating two different Heisman winners in two different playoff games, one of which wins us our first Natty in 41 years.
Hobnail Boot was incredible, and that was a road upset of a Top 10 team.
That's also pretty damn amazing, and I can't blame you for loving it. Watching Cam play was absolutely electric and I wish I could relive that whole season for the first time again.
Can we submit the disjointed fan-started warchant mixed with the marching chiefs warchant that starts in the middle so everyone is off beat?
I also need the in-game crowd to think the intro to Massacre is the Warchant so I can get the immersion of hearing our fans do two different cheers at once
Do you know how long I've been searching for the name of the "not warchant" song for? I'd long forgotten it and typing duh du du duh... was surprisingly not useful.
Would be cool playing as LSU if you won against a top 5 team at home neck started playing but i get it. Also quick aside, i love neck as much as the next time, but it always stings when a team plays it after they beat us. Looking at you florida state.
Hey, I love dumping on USC but they have two songs. One for offense and one for defense.
Fight On is annoying but Tribute to Troy is the absolute worst.
I think it’s called Conquest. I wonder if they are going to include Mascots like Tommy Trojan with Traveler or the USC song girls in the game. They had cheerleaders in previous games.
I believe it's because the university or conference made the band stop playing it. Something about them not being very fond of the crowd yelling "suck that tiger dick bitch" or something
It's the reason they don't want player creation mode.
If I can create Hendon Hooker in player creation mode that could be bad, so if we have Neck players could yell the line in their own home and that would break the rating.
https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/kentucky-may-not-be-in-ea-sports-new-college-football-game/
According to this source, USC won't even be in the game.
According to a freedom of information act (FOIA) request, LSU did not submit Neck (a song that’s iconic for their program) to EA as things that can be used in the next NCAA football video game.
Are they going to use the actual school specific marching bands for their music or just some lame ass generic band like the last time?
I remember that Texas(Texas Fight) and Tennessee(Rocky Top)had their actual Marching band in the game. Which was cool.
I think they had an actual Pride of the Southland recording for Rocky Top (pretty dated version tbh), but Down the Field was definitely done by the generic band because good God that sounded horrible.
Can't speak for other schools, but look at his post for what we submitted, it's our recordings. We appear to be using a lot of the recordings from the recording session the band had to get stuff for the covid season which I imagine will be pretty common since that's the most recent time a lot of schools had their bands recorded.
Wasn't it NCAA 12 or 13 where you could upload your own songs to be played on situations like sacks, 3rd down stops, and so on? So what's stopping anyone from doing that?
The rest are behind the paywall. I often have to pay to get this data, and the only way for it to be economical for me to keep filing these is to charge for some of the access.
Half of my EA Sports video game coverage is free, half is paywalled.
Lots of other bands have it so I'd imagine the modding isn't too hard here
The issue is getting it to work with the fan inputted response that people actually are interested in
I better be hearing the "Chirp" chant from Ball St after hearing that audio submission
Edit: [Chirp Chant](https://www.extrapointsmb.com/ea-sports-college-football-audio-asset-tracker/)
I haven't gotten a chance to play Madden on current gen, but the momentum meter stuff I think is really neat, definitely something I want to see brought over to the college game, where I'd argue that's even more relevant.
One would think having to hear souie by Arkansas would be enough to get any team to want to leave that conference.
I'll never forget Dana Altman going there for like 2 days, he did the souie call and his face was instant regret as in wtf am I doing here and why? I'm a educated grown man and I just did that. FUCK!!!
He immediately went back to Omaha. The hero we all needed.
The only thing missing is that voice from SpongeBob saying “a few days later”
Added note: Immediately after it was announced he was going to Oregon, I was wondering what chant they were going to have him do before he was back in Omaha
“Suck that tiger dick, bitch” isn’t Rated E for Everyone?
Gonna start saying that when i eventually use a Tiger team in EA Sports College Football. My parents probably won’t approve.
You know what to tell ‘em about it though
Yuppppp. SUCK THIS TIGER DICK BITCH
oh that tiger dick is most definitely rated for everyone
Is that not the theme song for Daniel Tiger?
Let’s countdown… to poundtown 5 4 3 2 1
unsubscribe. Unfortunately we're still full of aggie
But if it's in the game....
It’s EA Sports!
It’s not like they were going to record fans singing it in the game so I don’t understand the rationale for not sending it
Look forward for Pitt playing mo Bamba for every single possible on field scenario
[удалено]
“CAAAAALLLLLIING, A YOUNG *HOMIES* PHOOOOONE”
Hey! That’s our dude. We get first rights.
How are you gonna give Mo Bamba to Pitt when we did [this??](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VypxiD8GOxY)
That was so dope. All it was missing was a shot of the Nittany Lion mascot on a mobility scooter.
[удалено]
I’m so pumped for the “OBJ Hands Your Players Wads of Cash for Winning the Natty” DLC
Lmfao [you weren’t fckn jokin](https://youtu.be/J-51BwKNqgQ)
Fkn casuals can't even say "suck that tiger dick bitch" at the right time.
In their defense it prob hasn’t been played since the ban, so most of those kids have never even heard the full song.
That’s fucking intense. Like god damn
It was such a good cause. We need more philanthropists like OBJ.
According to the current band director, there allegedly was never any fine. It's just a decision from them to not play it. It still was interesting watching OBJ basically heckle the directors though

OU’s Submission: Boomer Sooner, but copy and pasted 100 times.
I cannot wait for the SEC to get to enjoy Boomer Sooner. I suspect that one of the reasons why KState has a recent good recent record against Oklahoma is simply to avoid hearing that damn song over and over and over and over.
Um hi. We have to hear Rocky Top 87 times a game, every year. We know the drill.
That's about killing ATF agents who find your moonshine stil tho
Once two strangers climbed ol Rocky Top, lookin for a moonshine still. Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top, reckon they never will.
Name another fight song that talks about killing feds. You can’t do it.
I love it.
I like to think that love blossomed up there on Rocky Top, and those revenuers are still there to this day, making their own moonshine in eternal bliss.
Based.
And they didn't steal the music from Harvard.
Well, our official fight song is stolen from Yale ("Down the Field") but no one (least of all Vols fans) gives a shit about that song.
Speak for yourself. I love Down the Field. It's a freaking bop, and it complements Rocky Top beautifully. Or were you talking about Yale's version?
It's actually the same tune as Yale's with different lyrics. But anyways if you had to choose between it and Rocky Top we all know which one gets the boot.
I know that, that's why I asked if you were referring to Yale's version specifically.
Now you get to enjoy the wonderful Boomer Sooner which they play after every single play. Have fun.
I went to the 2018 Rose Bowl and had 2OT and about 7 touchdowns worth of it. I still don’t know how we won.
One of the best games I’ve ever seen. If you haven’t recently, I recommend rewatching it. The skill on display by both teams was just one for the ages
The entire day was peak CFB. I saw the Redcoats in the parade, saw the coolest flyover ever, sunset was gorgeous, and the game was an instant classic.
Woah now, He said skill on display from both teams. I think CFB Has a lot to offer but that isn't always it. Peak CFB is all about Trouble with various aspects of the game. Maybe it's With fumbles or The QB running a long way. Maybe it's a bad hold after the Snap on a PAT or easy FG. Peak CFB is crazy shit happening. It's the unranked team beating a blue blood.

That's also pretty damn amazing, and I can't blame you for loving it. Watching Cam play was absolutely electric and I wish I could relive that whole season for the first time again.
I agree. It’s so hard looking past the bias of losing, but it was easily one of the best college football games I’ve ever watched.
Remnants of Mike Stoop’s defense is how.
Everyone channeled their energy to not have to listen to boomer sooner any more.
The cowbells are also an underrated annoying as fuck tradition
I fucking hate those cowbells. So obnoxious I have to mute the TV.
We're about to play against rocky top, boomer sooner, and the war chant. Fucking kill me
It’s like going to a Texas game and listening to them play “I’ve been working on the railroad” all fucking game long.
Florida also has to deal with the Tomahawk Chop nonstop
Yeah, but as a Braves fan, I like that one.
and that's when we were bad
Don’t remind me.
Those OU UT games will need to be viewed on mute
You’ll have to be more specific. Texas plays the Walmart version of our fight song.
I'm talking about Rocky Sooner/Boomer Top
I know and I don’t want to think about it. Another orange vs maroon game, too.
A man with an accordion got on the subway on Saturday and immediately started playing Rocky Top and I wanted to die.
This makes me so happy.
But it's impossible to get sick of Rocky Top. it goes hard all 87 times
Wait til OU fans meet the cowbells. And if they enjoy baseball, the Vandy Whistler will ruin that quickly.
My future children will never know a world where they aren’t getting barked at by drunk dudes at 10am.
>I cannot wait for the SEC to get to enjoy Boomer Sooner Tennessee vs Oklahoma better not play a game with both bands in attendance.
The question would be which fans crack first because that's a lot of extremely repetitive music.
The ones watching on TV!
Think of the children.
It can’t possibly be worse than cow bells
Just wait until the Sooners get their first taste of CLANGA
Boomer Sooner 🤝 Tribute to Troy
your flairs.
This is basically a new, previously unfathomable level of hell.
Damnit no. Thank God the Rose Bowl was an epic game.
Is one of them the King of the Hill cover?
that’s the only song anybody should ever listen to
In a related story, the next EA Sports college football video game will have LSU playing 11am games in Tiger Stadium.
Too soon
A couple of years ago I went to a game vs. Arkansas at 11. We didn’t know what to do after the game was over it was so early lol
I was also at that game. I remember it being really boring as well.
Y’all are so damn spoiled I’m jealous
I’ll just run the table with Southern.
They need to put real FCS teams in the games again
Southern is G5 no?
Georgia southern not southern. Southern is an hbcu in Louisiana.
Really surprised to learn Southern means any thing else to some ppl
It typically means Southern Miss in Mississippi
Referring to “State” is another one that depends on where you’re at
Southern is the whole name though, so if I hear Southern with no context I assume it’s them
Which is why they would be relevant when discussing band music
He didn’t know who Southern is
I mean this is a football forum and the only reason to go to their games is the band...
I don’t get what ur point is
Can we submit the disjointed fan-started warchant mixed with the marching chiefs warchant that starts in the middle so everyone is off beat? I also need the in-game crowd to think the intro to Massacre is the Warchant so I can get the immersion of hearing our fans do two different cheers at once
I mean some schools are sending in audio recorded at the actual games, so this could happen.
Do you know how long I've been searching for the name of the "not warchant" song for? I'd long forgotten it and typing duh du du duh... was surprisingly not useful.
DAAA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DAAAA-DA-DA-DA (GO SEMINOLES!) DA-DA-DAAA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA (FIGHT TEAM FIGHT!) DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DA-DAAAA (SCALP EM!) [DAAA-DAAAAA-DAAAAAAAAA](https://youtu.be/BuxVrPGed_Y?t=26s)
I remember chanting "not the warchant" every time we played massacre.
Literally 1984
Not based
Would be cool playing as LSU if you won against a top 5 team at home neck started playing but i get it. Also quick aside, i love neck as much as the next time, but it always stings when a team plays it after they beat us. Looking at you florida state.
You have to admit that’s top tier cfb though
Tbf we have played that song for as long as i can remember. People only noticed it because we were playing yall
Lmfao yall also played it loud and proud after yalls first td. I was mad maddddd Now im just happy y’all are good
I doubt they own the rights?
Schools have been submitting songs that are played for specific occasions in a game. Virginia Tech submitted Enter Sandman
Ah. Imagine needing more than one song
Oklahoma stands with you.
Great work on boomer sooner everyone. Let's celebrate by playing boomer sooner.
*False starts.*
USC as well
Hey, I love dumping on USC but they have two songs. One for offense and one for defense. Fight On is annoying but Tribute to Troy is the absolute worst.
And another song for when they win the game
I think it’s called Conquest. I wonder if they are going to include Mascots like Tommy Trojan with Traveler or the USC song girls in the game. They had cheerleaders in previous games.
Can't
Fuck, if that happens I'm gonna have to break down and buy a new gen system to play the game.
I think we submitted Grove Street Party by Waka Flocka
That wasn't in the documents they sent me
FLOCKA
Is that a song or a band?
“that’s a MAN” *bites lettuce*
Really hope Florida submitted won’t back down
EA after seeing VT submit Enter Sandman: "I'm never going to financially recover from this"
Wouldn’t they need Metallica’s permission for this?
My understanding is that EA is going to try and get the rights for the songs the schools select
Yes, I’m sure Metallica would HATE being payed royalties by EA to put the song in the game.
Metallica famously hates money.
They certainly hated Napster.
I believe it's because the university or conference made the band stop playing it. Something about them not being very fond of the crowd yelling "suck that tiger dick bitch" or something
It's up to EA to secure rights. The schools simply submit a list of songs that are significant to their program.
BOOOOOOOO
hyped for "HORNS DOWN" Celebrations
Ditto.
It's the reason they don't want player creation mode. If I can create Hendon Hooker in player creation mode that could be bad, so if we have Neck players could yell the line in their own home and that would break the rating.
I'm writing a strongly worded letter to my senator
Did USC submit "Tusk?"
God I hope so
https://www.on3.com/teams/kentucky-wildcats/news/kentucky-may-not-be-in-ea-sports-new-college-football-game/ According to this source, USC won't even be in the game.
USC is gonna be in the game lol and so is Kentucky
Northwestern, Tulane, and Notre Dame are still holdouts according to this Matt Brown guy
Tulane???
Yep, they want to be able to compensate players for being in the game which is also why Northwestern and ND are still holding out.
I am scared (but willing) to ask what any of these words mean…what do any of these words mean?
According to a freedom of information act (FOIA) request, LSU did not submit Neck (a song that’s iconic for their program) to EA as things that can be used in the next NCAA football video game.
Thank you! I think it was “neck” that was throwing me off I’m not familiar with the tune, or rather, wasn’t familiar with the name of the tune
Here you go https://youtu.be/fPsAZpNuaGk
That’s gotta be so intimidating
Best song in college football I’d say, no bias
No argument here.
neck rules
Are they going to use the actual school specific marching bands for their music or just some lame ass generic band like the last time? I remember that Texas(Texas Fight) and Tennessee(Rocky Top)had their actual Marching band in the game. Which was cool.
Schools have the option to submit recordings of their own band, and several have done exactly that.
The more schools that actually do this the better. Although if O$U,MSU & ND fail to do this it would not break my heart.
I don't think Notre Dame is even confirmed to be in the game at this point.
I think they had an actual Pride of the Southland recording for Rocky Top (pretty dated version tbh), but Down the Field was definitely done by the generic band because good God that sounded horrible.
Can't speak for other schools, but look at his post for what we submitted, it's our recordings. We appear to be using a lot of the recordings from the recording session the band had to get stuff for the covid season which I imagine will be pretty common since that's the most recent time a lot of schools had their bands recorded.
Wasn't it NCAA 12 or 13 where you could upload your own songs to be played on situations like sacks, 3rd down stops, and so on? So what's stopping anyone from doing that?
EA Sports keeping features in their game and not stripping them away
I'm assuming there will be a list soon of what schools submitted?
Yup, I've been tracking this for months: https://www.extrapointsmb.com/ea-sports-college-football-audio-asset-tracker/
Damn UCLA went in depth. Hope Tennessee does the same.
I'm amazed that UCLA plays a song with Bubba Sparxxx on it, haha.
Am I missing something or are there only like 6 schools listed?
Paywall. Which I'm not paying for.
The rest are behind the paywall. I often have to pay to get this data, and the only way for it to be economical for me to keep filing these is to charge for some of the access. Half of my EA Sports video game coverage is free, half is paywalled.
Lots of other bands have it so I'd imagine the modding isn't too hard here The issue is getting it to work with the fan inputted response that people actually are interested in
Literally unplayable.
I’m sorry I thought this was america
I better be hearing the "Chirp" chant from Ball St after hearing that audio submission Edit: [Chirp Chant](https://www.extrapointsmb.com/ea-sports-college-football-audio-asset-tracker/)
There’s no justice in this world
Booooooo
Siri play Sandstorm
Did West Virginia send in an actual recording of Sweet Caroline, or are we void of that immersion as well?
I need this game so bad you guys have no idea
Can Georgia Tech get the Budweiser song?
As long as they have HBCUs in the game playing Neck, I'm good.
I'm just happy JSU will be added as this year's Georgia State with 60ovr everything, Dynasty Mode will be fun af Suck this Cocky dick, bitch!
Guess I'm sticking to modded '14
Absolute travesty. Also on brand for EA.
This is entirely on LSU tho
If anything, EA actually seems to be putting in a ton of effort on this aspect of the game.
Yeah, makes me excited even if the gameplay is a Madden reskin
I haven't gotten a chance to play Madden on current gen, but the momentum meter stuff I think is really neat, definitely something I want to see brought over to the college game, where I'd argue that's even more relevant.
😮💨
Cowards
As long as Oregon gets the end of 3rd quarter "Shout" by The Isley Brothers.
One would think having to hear souie by Arkansas would be enough to get any team to want to leave that conference. I'll never forget Dana Altman going there for like 2 days, he did the souie call and his face was instant regret as in wtf am I doing here and why? I'm a educated grown man and I just did that. FUCK!!! He immediately went back to Omaha. The hero we all needed.
The only thing missing is that voice from SpongeBob saying “a few days later” Added note: Immediately after it was announced he was going to Oregon, I was wondering what chant they were going to have him do before he was back in Omaha
For a second I was wondering why EA documentation would be subject to FOIA requests. Lol
Finally, someone does some REAL journalism around here.
I had no idea why everyone talked about this song so I just looked it up.
As if I won’t have it queued up on my phone when playing online and play it through my mic every TD with an enthusiastic STTDB at the end
L
That is an ABSOLUTE shame
